But do they count running as "working out"? Or is it just about using the equipment? No way I could do all that in just 60 minutes. |

| You don't need to do a lot of cardio really. Just enough to get your heart rate up and stay up. I only run for 15-20 minutes, sometimes only 10. I'm in and out of the gym in under an hour. |

| Depends what you're training for but yea, longer is often not better and you must take breaks as well. Training 7 days a week is detrimental to your health. |

I work out 5 days a week (or at least, that's what I try to do) and I run every other day. |

That is possible, but way too many variables are involved to apply as a standard for everyone. |

| Duh, and I wasn't suggesting that. |

| personally i feel like 60min of exercise a day is not enough for those of us who work in places where you sit on your ass all day. i think it's ridiculous people spend so little time on exercising...if you work construction or something physical you are technically working out your muscles so no need to do that much more exercise but for the rest of us strapped to our chairs get out and do something. on the days i can't make it the gym i make it a point to walk part of the way home or walk around during lunch, not a full workout but at least i'm doing something. |

Finally began integrating a more concentrated cardio routine into my weightlifting schedule; I'm not exactly running at the level I was nine years ago, but much to my surprise, I've still managed to maintain a strong runner's posture.
How's your form looking these days, Domesticated? |
